Wang Qiang asked: "Boss, how do we adjust it specifically?"
Wang Jianye took out a plan that he had prepared long ago and explained it in detail: "First, the basic salary will be appropriately increased according to the position and work experience. Then, performance bonuses will be set up and distributed according to the monthly service quality, dish sales, customer satisfaction, etc. In addition, we will regularly select outstanding employees and give them material and spiritual rewards."
The employees listened attentively and nodded from time to time.
Wang Jianye continued, "Not only that, in order to strengthen the communication and cooperation between the head office and branches, we will regularly arrange for personnel to learn from each other and exchange experiences. If the head office has good practices, our branches will learn from them; if the branches have innovative ideas, they can also be promoted to the head office. In this way, everyone can make progress together and increase income together."
Li Qiang said: "Boss, now that you said that, we feel relieved. As long as it is fair and just, we are willing to continue working hard!"
Zhao Na also smiled and said, "Yes, boss, we believe you!"
After the meeting, Wang Jianye immediately started to implement the new salary system and reward mechanism. The enthusiasm of the employees was re-stimulated and they worked harder.
The personnel exchanges between the head office and branches were also carried out smoothly. The old masters of the head office came to the branches to share their experience, and the young employees of the branches went to the head office to learn the standardized service procedures. Everyone communicated with each other, learned from each other, and improved together.
During an exchange activity, Chef Zhang from the head office personally demonstrated the preparation process of a signature dish, and the chefs from the branches gathered around to learn carefully.
"The key to this dish is the control of the heat. It needs to be simmered over low heat so that the flavor can be absorbed." Chef Zhang explained as he cooked.
Xiao Wang, the chef at the branch, suddenly realized: "So that's why. No wonder the food we cook always tastes a little bit off."
Through such exchanges and cooperation, the branch's food quality and service level have been further improved, and business has become more prosperous.
A few months later, the performance of all Wang's restaurant branches reached new highs, and the income of employees also increased significantly.
Li Qiang took the generous bonus with a happy smile on his face: "The boss keeps his word, our efforts have not been in vain!"
Zhao Na also said happily: "Now everyone has a goal to achieve, and we are more motivated to work!"
Wang Jianye was delighted to see his employees satisfied. He knew that only by making his employees feel fair and cared for could Wang's entire hotel chain go further.
On a quiet night, Wang Jianye stood at the door of the branch, looking at the brightly lit store, feeling a mixture of emotions in his heart.
He knows very well that the success of Wang's entire hotel chain is inseparable from the efforts of every employee, and what he has to do is to create a better platform for everyone to realize their dreams together.
Wang's full range of restaurants, the shining pearl of Beijing's catering industry, is experiencing increasingly booming business.
Every morning, before the opening hours, there is already a long queue outside the store, with diners eagerly waiting to taste the delicious food that Wang's entire restaurant series has rave reviews about.
Inside the store, the tables were crowded with people and laughter could be heard everywhere.
Dishes with delicious looks, aromas and flavors are served out of the kitchen like a stream and delivered to the diners' tables.
The fragrant roast duck has crispy skin, tender meat and ruddy color. The chefs' exquisite slicing skills are even more amazing.
The exquisite desserts are small and exquisite, melt in your mouth, and are sweet but not greasy;
All kinds of stir-fried dishes are cooked to just the right temperature, bringing out the deliciousness of the ingredients.
As the business prospers, the demand for raw materials from all Wang's restaurants is also increasing.
However, this prosperous scene has caused the raw material suppliers who originally had good cooperation to have evil ideas.
Wang Jianye was handling affairs in the office as usual when he suddenly received a call from his supplier Lao Zhang.
"Boss Wang, we have been cooperating for such a long time, but now the market situation has changed. The price of raw materials has to go up, otherwise I won't be able to do business."
There was a hint of greed in Lao Zhang's voice.
Wang Jianye frowned and said, "Lao Zhang, we have a contract. How can the price be raised just like that?"
"Boss Wang, as you know, there is a shortage of goods everywhere now. It is not easy for me to supply you with goods. If you do not agree to the price increase, I cannot guarantee that I can supply you with the goods on time and in quantity." Lao Zhang's tone became tough.
Wang Jianye was furious, but he suppressed his anger and said, "Lao Zhang, we are old friends. It's not fair for you to do this."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Jianye fell into deep thought.
He knew that he could not be led by the supplier and had to find a way to solve this problem.
So, Wang Jianye began to look for new reliable suppliers.
He traveled to various markets and production areas with his assistants.
In a remote rural area, they found a small farm.
The owner of the farm is a simple farmer named Lao Li.
"Brother Li, how is the quality of your chickens and ducks?" Wang Jianye asked.
Old Li smiled naively and said, "Boss Wang, don't worry, this is all natural breeding, absolutely green and healthy."
Wang Jianye looked at the environment of the farm and felt a little hesitant.
The scale here is relatively small, and whether the production can meet the needs of all Wang’s restaurants is a big question.
And the transportation cost will also increase a lot.
After saying goodbye to Lao Li, Wang Jianye visited several suppliers but was not satisfied with any of them.
Either the quality is not good enough or the price is too high.
At the same time, negotiations with existing supplier Lao Zhang also reached a deadlock.
At the negotiation table, Lao Zhang looked determined to win: "Boss Wang, let me tell you, I am the only one who can provide you with such a large amount of goods now. If you don't agree to raise the price, you can think about the consequences yourself."
Wang Jianye looked at Lao Zhang coldly: "Lao Zhang, you should be honest. We have been working together for so many years, and you suddenly raised the price. I am very disappointed."
"Boss Wang, it's not that I'm dishonest, it's just that the cost is too high and I have no choice." Lao Zhang argued.
The two sides were at a stalemate and the negotiation atmosphere was very tense.
Wang Jianye's heart was filled with anxiety.
If the problem of raw material supply cannot be solved, the reputation and business of all Wang’s restaurants will be affected.
He couldn't sleep all night, thinking about countermeasures.
He decided to negotiate with Lao Zhang again, and this time, he was fully prepared.
"Lao Zhang, I have also learned about the market conditions. Your price is indeed too high. If you insist on raising the price, then we can only terminate our cooperation. I believe I can find other suitable suppliers." Wang Jianye said in a firm tone.
Old Zhang didn't expect Wang Jianye to be so resolute, and he panicked: "Boss Wang, don't be so heartless, let's discuss it again."
Finally, after some difficult negotiations, Lao Zhang made some concessions and the price increase was not that large.
But Wang Jianye knew that this was only a temporary solution and he still had to find a more reliable supplier as soon as possible. (End of this chapter)
